Abstract

A docking station for an electronic vaporizing device (EVD), the docking station includes: a housing; one or more charging slots in the housing for a plurality of spare batteries for use in the EVD; a dedicated charging slot in the housing for engaging the EVD to charge the EVD's battery; wherein the plurality of spare batteries are used as replacements for the EVD's battery; and an AC/DC charger connected to an AC electrical plug receptacle for charging a main battery that powers the docking station.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A docking station for an electronic vaporizing device (EVD), the docking station comprising:
 a housing;   one or more charging slots in the housing for a plurality of spare batteries for use in the EVD;   a dedicated charging slot in the housing for engaging the EVD to charge the EVD's battery;   wherein the plurality of spare batteries are used as replacements for the EVD's battery; and   an AC/DC charger connected to an AC electrical plug receptacle for charging a main battery that powers the docking station.   
     
     
         2 . The docking station of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a data port configured to accept external memory devices, data transfer cables, and wireless data transfer adaptors.   
     
     
         3 . The docking station of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an electronic information display configured to display usage and status information for the engaged EVD.   
     
     
         4 . The docking station of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an electronic information display configured to display and playback audio/video (A/V) entertainment information.   
     
     
         5 . The docking station of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a headphone jack for outputting audio.   
     
     
         6 . The docking station of  claim 1 , wherein the AC electrical plug receptacle retracts into the housing. 
     
     
         7 . The docking station of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a retractable viewing stand that retracts into the housing.   
     
     
         8 . The docking station of  claim 1 , wherein the housing has a series of dimensions that approximates a cigarette pack. 
     
     
         9 . An electronic vaporizing device (EVD) cylindrical canister comprising:
 an AC/DC charger connected to an AC electrical plug receptacle for charging a main battery that powers the EVD cylindrical canister;   a sealed cartridge chamber containing a liquid;   a wicking system that penetrates the sealed cartridge chamber and facilitates the flow of the liquid to a vaporizer;   wherein the vaporizer converts the liquid into a vapor that is outputted into a vapor tube that is joined to a straw that is external to the cylindrical canister; and   wherein the EVD cylindrical canister is dimensioned to mimic popular energy drink or beverage cans.   
     
     
         10 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 a data port configured to accept external memory devices, data transfer cables, and wireless data transfer adaptors.   
     
     
         11 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 an electronic information display configured to display usage and status information for the EVD.   
     
     
         12 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 an electronic information display configured to display and playback audio/video (A/V) entertainment information.   
     
     
         13 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 a headphone jack for outputting audio.   
     
     
         14 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 a vibration motor that provides tactile feedback.   
     
     
         15 . The EVD cylindrical canister of  claim 9 , wherein the liquid to be vaporized include, but are not limited to: nicotine, caffeine, vitamins, energy drinks, supplements, insulin, medications, coffee, sodas, candy, ice cream, alcohol, natural extracts and flavors. 
     
     
         16 . A hookah comprising:
 a plurality of pipes individually configured with separate EVD; and   wherein a vapor flavor selection for a particular pipe from the plurality of pipes is determined by a liquid cartridge selected for the particular pipe's EVD.   
     
     
         17 . The hookah of  claim 16 , wherein the separate EVD are configured with an on/off switch for controlling a heater, thereby allowing a user to choose whether to heat the vapor in their individual pipe. 
     
     
         18 . The hookah of  claim 16 , wherein the hookah is powered via an AC/DC outlet plug. 
     
     
         19 . The hookah of  claim 16 , wherein the separate EVD are configured with on/off switches. 
     
     
         20 . The hookah of  claim 16 , wherein the liquid to be vaporized include, but are not limited to: nicotine, caffeine, vitamins, energy drinks, supplements, insulin, medications, coffee, sodas, candy, ice cream, alcohol, natural extracts and flavors.
